Alex nodded in sympathy when he said that genetics was hard. There were certain science-related things on her show that tended to go above her head. Even though it hadn't made it into the final cut for a fair amount of reasons (privacy being one of them, honestly) she had still needed to sit down and talk with a geneticist in the show's motley crew of friends of friends about certain things that may or may not have involved eugenics and the like. Freaking Warren and freaking Oneda. "It really is amazing. Even when I was in grade school, we didn't know some of the things about genetics that we do now. I mean, at first they didn't think they'd crack the genome, and then it turns out that they did it. I mean, it even makes my head spin, and I remember hearing about DNA when I was much younger for the first time." Like most people of a certain age, Alex definitely means the OJ trial.
